Escape Dead Island vs Killing Floor
Escape Dead Island
Escape Dead Island is a Telltale-inspired, story-driven survival-mystery spin-off for the Dead Island franchise where the game's fans will be able to uncover the story behind the zombie outbreak through the eyes of documentary journalist Cliff Calo and fill in the gap between the first Dead Island game and the upcoming Dead Island sequel. Unlike the open world game that the franchise was defined by, this spin-off uses a comic-like style to bring the story to life. The virtual environment is also reactive to your every decision and as such, you might want to sometimes opt for a stealthier option rather than diving straight into combat, especially when the combat system - since it's not the main focus of the game and all - can be a bit boring.Escape Dead Island is very different from what you might be used to in Dead Island or Dead Island Riptide, and despite the heavy use of backtracking, the story and animation made everything worthwhile, especially if you're into this kind of stuff.
Killing Floor
Killing Floor is an intense survival horror first-person shooter game that is set in the post-apocalyptic and devastatingly ruined country of England where a series of military-sanctioned cloning experiments had gone awry. Play with up to 6 of your friends cooperatively as you attempt to survive for long enough to clear the area you are airdropped into of any zombies or you can simply play solo. Unlike most similar games, Killing Floor has a non-linear gameplay where you can actually weld doors shut to redirect waves of zombies. The gameplay is also more tactically sound rather than the bullet-hell stuff you'd experience in some of the more arcade-like shooters.In addition to having an arsenal of weapons for you to choose from, the game also features a persistent perks system which lets you to convert your in-game achievements into permanent improvements for your character's skills and abilities. The game even has mod support, so you can create new levels and mods for the game and share them with the world.
Killing Floor may be a rather old game, but it's still as fun as it was before. The cooperative gameplay guarantees hours of fun (as well as yelling and perhaps cussing) for both you and your friends as you try to stem the tide of zombies rushing towards you.
